Product Description

Details

Anyone exercising to increase strength, speed and muscle mass will notice faster results and reduced muscle soreness when using Glutamine. It's one of the most important building blocks in forming the proteins that repair damaged muscles, a vital amino acid, and essential for muscle growth.

Glutamine is a muscle recovery essential. When your body is under pressure from intensive training, colds or stress, your body can’t make enough glutamine to meet your needs. So it robs the glutamine stores you need for muscle growth. And when those glutamine stores are depleted, you lose strength, stamina, and your recovery ability. 

Like Creapure® creatine, Glutamine is extremely effective. It helps replace glycogen, which restores energy, as well as helping repair and build muscle tissue. Glutamine works as a nitrogen shuttle, picking up and dropping off nitrogen around the body. Maintaining a positive nitrogen balance is critical for muscle building.  Glutamine is also useful to anyone training for endurance sports such as long distance running or cycling, and can help reduce the incidence of cramps caused through repetitive strain. It’s also recommended for elderly people who suffer from cramps and regular muscle pain as a natural alternative to chemical pain killers.

Key benefits

Helps lose body fat without losing hard earned muscle mass
Supports endurance training such as running and cycling 
Eases the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome and other gastro intestinal tract disorders
Reduces muscle cramps caused through repetitive strain
Reduces healing time after surgery.
May reduce the side effects of chemotherapy drugs, including mouth sores, diarrhoea, and muscle and joint pain. 

 Directions

 Add one heaped teaspoon (5 grams) to a cold drink or your Eat Me whey protein shake. Use up to three serves daily. Use a half serve, once a day for five days, until your body becomes accustomed to additional Glutamine. Add Glutamine to your Eat Me protein shake, and use with Creapure® micronised creatine monohydrate and Eat Me BCAAs for maximum muscle building results.  Add one serve to the ultimate pre workout, The Curse, before you exercise.


Taking excessive amounts of L-Glutamine can lead to upset stomachs. And people taking an anti-seizure medication, with epilepsy or bipolar disorder should consult with a health care practitioner before supplementing glutamine.

Very Impressive! Review by Matt
Effectiveness
Value
I only used to use Creatine and Whey Protein and thought I was getting awesome results, but after adding L Glutamine to my Pre / After workout shakes and having some before bed I have had AMAZING results!

I work on a fishing boat and am out at sea for 4 weeks at a time, and when I get back my first workout is a struggle. I was lifting the same weight as I was before I left but instead of doing 12 reps per set I was finding it hard to reach 8, and only 3 sets instead of 5 - 6. 4 workouts later with Glutamine added I have added just over kgs to my ezy bar for bicep curls alone!

That is a huge increase in weight for one week!

Highly Recommended! (Posted on 6/02/12)
Helping me lean out Review by Bruce

Effectiveness
I've been using this to maintain my muscle while loosing body fat, and it is working awesome so far. My strength has stayed around the same reps and weight for the past 6 weeks which may sound bad..... BUT! I have lost 3 kg in that time so it is very possible it is all fat that has been burnt and preserved my muscle.

Reduces muscle soreness Review by Marathon Man
Effectiveness
Value
I've read more about supplementation with glutamine than any other supplement. My running programme is tough. It causes extremely sore quad and calf muscles and shoulder ache. And I'm training on three full cycles a year. So I run three full marathon races a year assisted by three half marathons a year. That's a full schedule. Muscle pain and muscle recovery are the only things that slow me down. In my experience, glutamine significantly reduces muscle soreness the following day, and the day after the day after an intensive session. Often it's that second day that my muscles were the most sore. In running, recovery is everything. Glutamine is essential for my pre and post race nutrition. (Posted on 6/07/11)
Number 3 on my list of essential supplements Review by Mark
Effectiveness
Value
Tried this after reading research that showed that two grams of Glutamine supplement increases HGH significantly. Many of the protein recovery drinks sold here contain up to five grams of glutamine - so two grams might be considered a small dose. I take 5 grams of Glutamine before training and another 5 grams before bed.
I feel stronger at the end of a workout and definitely have less muscle soreness over the days following after squat and deadlift training. (Posted on 19/12/10)
Great product, gets great results Review by Adam Keen, Otago Nuggets Trainer
Effectiveness
Value
The Otago Nuggets Basketball Team have been using this product in combination with other Eat Me products (Eat Me Creapure® Creatine, 100% Whey, Beta Alanine) over our off-season/pre-season and have been having great results. A big emphasis of our training was to increase size and strength and this product has helped us in achieving these goals. Player's strength has increased dramatically and lean body mass is also up. This product helps with recovery so we are able to train harder and more often. (Posted on 15/12/10)
